Home brewers and fans of beer, the Black Rock Brewery will be returning
in 2011 as part of the Black Rock French Quarter! Whether you're looking
for a camp to join, or are already the member of another camp, we need
all the help we can get to perfect the latest brews, outfit our mutant
vehicle, and construct our beer hall and bottling facility!

We request a donation of 24 12oz bottles of beer or mead. We have graphic designers that create awesome labels for the brews and then we share them with the playa. Half of the beer goes into sampler packs that are returned to the brewers. The rest is used for daily tastings and a judging.

I also think its a fun topic b/c distilling is illegal in the U.S.,
however, if you do it you can cut out 75% of the cost of alcohol.
You guys could have a hell of an operation if you had a gameplan
for dealing with the legal issues.

This sounds like something our sister camp, the Golden Cafe, might be interested in. They do serve absinthe and they make their own flavored concoctions of other alcohols. With their creativity, I'm sure they could make something work. I'll let our mayor know.

Alas, our goal is NOT to serve the cheapest possible alcohol. We're quite proud to be serving the same liquor you'd find at any proper cocktail lounge, all of it produced by real distilleries like Ketel One, Jameson, Herradura, and Bacardi. No offense to anyone craving some white lightning on playa, but we'll stick to our Pappy Van Winkle 20 Year Kentucky Bourbon.

We used Avery's repositionable labels. You can reposition them within a few minutes and then they won't budge at all, even after days in water. I was hoping they would come off easier because I'm reusing the bottles.

I'm not a home brewer but am a fan of beer so expect me to come give you all a laugh and or helping hand with whatever so some of you beer masters may let me indulge in some tasty brews? See you at E11 QuickDraw

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner, but our regional burn was this weekend. If you want to find out more about us, join our mailing list at http://groups.google.com/group/black-rock-brewery. Look through the threads to see how we operate and fill out the sign-up form if you are interested. Message me directly at quickdrawannie@gmail.com with your questions.

My girlfriend and I are interested in joining your camp. We have been making beer and wine for several years now. Before we camped alone or with a group of 10 or so friends. What do we need to do to sign up? Do you know for sure where the camp will be located?

I'm sure they don't know where they are placed, maybe not even if they are placed. That whole process isn't over. (Although, I think theme camp requests have been closed for a week or two.) Also, with the whole ticketing thing, they may not even be sure how many are going.My suggestion. Go to the main site (you can get there through the link in the upper left of the page that says "burningman"), go to last year's theme camps and see if there's a contact email...

As theCryptofishist points out, this is a thread for the camp's activities at last year's event (last entry from the OP is July of last year). You may care to either try the links in the original post or send a PM to the original poster to find out more info about their plans for 2012, if any. As for placement, that won't be announced until July.
